Jorge likes collecting watches by their looks, and he has more than 90 watches in his collections. As he said, “University of Houston is one of three top recruiting campuses”. He values leadership, sponsorship, and role models in Deloitte. “Never, never, never give up” is his mantras. “Always do the right things”. He is grateful.
